Nepal Federal Health System Project

Nepal's move to a federal government system has led to significant change in the governance and operation of the country's health system. This research project is tracking this immense health system reform effort in real time, drawing upon the experiences, perceptions and expertise of health system actors from across all levels of government, and working with key stakeholders to co-develop and implement initiatives to ensure that the benefits of federalism are captured, and the problems that emerge are tackled.
